About: I am a 33 yr old Army Vet and I currently work at a Veterinary Hospital when I'm not on active duty. I have 4 pets; 2 dogs & 2 reptiles. I have own all types of animals since I was a child and my passion continues to grow! I am off Saturday-Monday with minimal hours the remainder of the week of 8-245pm.

There is a local dog park that I use for my own pets as well as trails near by.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, caring for the brand new puppy to the old man needing a diaper. While all my experience is personal, I’d love to be able to meet your furry family member and make a new friend. I work for a fire department and ambulance, so my schedule is not very flexible. My goal with this is to help those needing pet care on my days off and in my spare time:) My puppers are fed twice a day, played with throughout the day, keep a full water bowl and are spoiled with the occasional treat. Just basic pet-owner duties. They’re allowed on our laps for cuddle time and if it’s not too hot they can sleep on the bed.
5. Michael B.
“Michael helped me with dog sitting my yellow lab for over a decade. When Riley was young, he took him running & to the beach regularly. Michael is dependable. Loves dogs & is skilled with puppies up to senior dogs. When Riley got sick in his later years, he would assist in providing medications, injections, etc. There’s no one else I would trust with my beloved Riley.”

About: I love all dogs and cats, and birds. My whole life I have had dogs and cats. Over many years, my pets have been schnauzer mix, sheepdog mix, rottweiler, pitbull mix, boxer mixes, and now Yorkie mixes. I am strong and love to walk dogs and play. I allow pets on furniture and beds. But if you don't want your pet to bring these habits to your home, I will honor your requests to keep them off the furniture. I am experienced with bathing dogs, but I am not a groomer or nail trimmer. I am energetic and attentive to your pets needs. Senior dog care is my specialty. I have soft pet stairs to get to the couch and bed. I have a pet stroller for sniffing and sight seeing without over exertion. We also have pet pads and diapers if incontinence is an issue. Our home is clean and pet friendly/safe. We are looking forward to caring for your pet🐕 I am available most days and weekends. This is perfect for pets with separation anxiety or pets who have a lot of energy and want to play or walk a lot. I have a 1 mile walk 2x per day. Lots of shade and slow minimal cars in the area. I will maintain any habits you have for your pet. Yes on furniture, no on furniture. Yes to crate(I have large and small crates) or no crate. Special diet or simple diet. Etc. I have experience with giving meds- oral, topical, injection (intramuscular or subcutaneous...not intravenous), ear meds, wound care. I have 2 small dogs. But if you dog doesn't appreciate other dogs, I can easily keep them separated. My yard is securely fenced and I have dog doors for anytime access and can be closed for any reason ex: at night etc. I am very trainable to care for your pet the way you want them to be treated.

“Tiffany and her family LOVE pets. They have contributed to our pet family for years and are loved by our two legged and four legged pets. They know dogs and how to care for and love them. The children grew up with big dogs and have developed nurturing relationships with them. If you need a safe and loving place for your fur babies while you are away, call Tiffany.”
8. Laura G.
“Laura is great with my dogs, and one of them is usually terrified of people. My high energy pups were always tired after their walks, which is saying a lot. I knew my dogs were being well cared for and given lots of love. I will definitely be using Laura again and would recommend to a friend.”

20. Stephanie B.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs my whole life. In high school I volunteered at the SPCA and worked there until moving to Coos Bay! There we dealt with dogs from every walk of life and tried to give them as much love and attention as possible. We bathed, fed, walked and relieved meds to every dog. Since moving here I’ve been able to put my experience to use with some close friends and neighbors but would love to branch out. I absolutely adore ALL dog and have experiences with various breeds and behaviors. I’m currently working but looking to cut back and focus on my family! Im hoping I can get a few trusted clients to make it possible for me to stay home and give my attention to the pups who deserve it ❤️ I have a house with a good sized fenced in yard for playing. I have two dogs of my own, golden retriever and chocolate lab who are great with other dogs and love meeting new friends. My dogs are my family! They are familiar with using the crate but sleep/nap on their bed or couch. I can do whatever you prefer…crate or dog bed!
